Retire Offshore -  9 Inspiring Reasons

Retire overseas to a life full of excitement and adventure. New challenges and experiences are all around once you manage to climb out of your rut.

It is nerve racking and challenging but with all the support available from organisations and people who've "done it"... it's actually simple and easy.

1. If you are moving from a so called First World country to a cheaper one either less First World or "developing" you will live more luxuriously than you ever could at home for a fraction of the cost.

2. Many overseas countries have an "easy going, laid back way of life." You will escape the traffic jams and long commutes for a better quality of life. Simply living happier, healthier and with much less stress.

3. A great reason is to find what you consider the perfect weather. Where winter's snow and ice are just distant memories and all the heating is done by the sun. The warm temperate weather encouraging you to get outside and enjoy one of the many available pastimes.

4. Get away from the growing unemployment and negativity, and where work has become a day to day drag. You can escape the 8-to-5 drudgery of a day job and work for yourself.

There are many opportunities to completely overhaul and reinvent yourself, or not work at all if that's what you choose (although personally I hope you don't go down that road!).

5. Many overseas countries are looking for skilled people to come and start businesses and they make it very attractive to emigrate and to start your own business. They understand the attraction of a country where you'll pay less taxes and keep more of what you earn.

6. Retire to one of the many economically vibrant, fast growing offshore countries filled with potential and poised for growth. You can put yourself on the ground in a place that is about to bloom. They are filled with opportunity and optimism and your skill and expertise will be well rewarded.

7. To live your passion. If you move to an exciting exotic location you may see a lot more of your family and have great quality time. Write the book you always thought about writing whether as an aspiring J K Rowling or just because you always wanted to. Spend your mornings hiking, or playing golf, or fishing, or snorkelling.

8. In many First World (does that relate to the amount of debt you have with the rest of the world?) countries their finances are in a mess. Wasting money on foreign empire building campaigns and failing domestic baleouts. To maintain this they unfairly tax their citizens. If you feel this way this is an excellent opportunity to rearrange your financial affairs so that you're saving on your taxes.

9. Last but not least one of the best reasons to retire overseas to is spark the spirit of adventure. To continue the migration, started by our forefathers many, many years ago, to find freedom and new opportunities. It may be a chance to learn a new language and make new friends and to expose ourselves to and experience something completely different.

Retiring overseas offers many exciting options. Before deciding to make a permanent move you can "try before you buy", visit before you move and rent before you buy. Test it out progressively like visit for 3 weeks, then if you like it 6 weeks then the final test of 6 months. Leave your mundane and routine life behind. Set out to find your own answers. Believe what you see or experience and not what you hear and; just do it.
